High-End Short-Form Video Editor (Please check EXAMPLES)

We’re looking for a high-end short-form video editor with a strong motion design mindset who can take ownership of short-form content across multiple personal brands.

This is not a volume-based TikTok chopping role.
We’re building premium, brand-consistent short-form systems that scale across platforms without visual drift.

It will be an ongoing collaboration, not a one-off gig.

This role is ideal if you’re looking for stable, long-term partnerships rather than constantly chasing new clients.

If we win, you win. We are open to promoting good talent and referring you to our network.


What you’ll be responsible for

You’ll handle short-form video editing and motion design across different brands and content types, including:

- Short-form videos for Instagram Reels, TikTok, YouTube Shorts
- Motion-designed subtitles & kinetic typography (clean, intentional, brand-aligned)
- Structured visual hook sections (first 1–3 seconds matter)
- Visual pacing, rhythm, and pattern interrupts
- Brand-consistent overlays, lower thirds, callouts, and micro-animations
- Adapting one video style across multiple brands without losing identity
- Maintaining and evolving short-form video systems per brand


What we’re looking for
- Strong results in short-form editing + motion design
- Clean, modern, high-retention editing style (not gimmicky, not over-edited)
- Deep understanding of hooks, pacing, and viewer retention
- Ability to build and maintain consistent visual motion systems, including colour grading
- Strong eye for typography, spacing, timing, and visual hierarchy
- Experience adapting one brand across many videos without inconsistency
- Comfortable working with talking-head content, podcasts, interviews, and UGC-style footage

- Reliable, structured, and proactive communicator
- Fluent in English (mostly written communication)


Workload & collaboration model
- About 10 hours per client per week
- Integration into our current workflow
- Open for adjustment to your workflow

Every time we get a new client, you get the opportunity to add another 10-20 hours per week depending on the size of the client. We are open to hiring talent on a full time basis as well.

This role is ideal if you want stability, ownership, and long-term growth, not constant client chasing.

If we win, you win – we actively promote strong talent and refer within our network.


Tools & workflow
We are open to adjusting to your tool stack, as long as you deliver the quality we are looking for. These are just for orientation on our current preferred tools:

- Adobe Premiere Pro / After Effects (or equivalent)
- Or CapCut but able to make it look high-end
- Strong motion design skills (After Effects)
- Figma familiarity is a plus (for brand systems & references)
